Abstract Title: 

Instant White Rice with Pigmented Giant Embryonic Rice Improves Glucose Metabolism and Inhibits Oxidative Stress in High-Fat Diet-Fed Mice.

Abstract: 

The effects of instant cooked rice made from a combination of white rice and pigmented giant embryonic Keunnunjami rice, in comparison with those of instant regular white or brown rice and instant non-pigmented giant embryonic brown rice, on the glucose metabolism and antioxidant defense status in high-fat diet-fed mice were investigated. 56 male C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into 7 dietary groups: normal control, high fat (23 %, HF), and HF supplemented with normal white (HF + NW) or brown rice (HF + NB), non-pigmented giant embryonic rice (HF + GB), and white rice with 8 % Keunnunjami (HF + KJ8) and 18 % Keunnunjami (HF + KJ18). After 7 weeks, HF mice showed marked increases in blood glucose (156 mg/dL), plasma insulin (12.1 mg/mL), and lipid peroxidation, and a significant decrease in hepatic glycogen (14.2 mg/g) relative to the control group (
